Shogun Japanese Steak House Menu

Sorry, We are updating this restaurant menu details.

    This is a typical, Hibachi-style restaurant that is a little dated in terms of décor, etc. - but it delivers. It's nothing over-the-top, but nothing to worry about either. The food is good (and plentiful) and the wait staff goes out of their way to accommodate you. They are currently going through new ownership and working to get their liquor license, which may pose a problem for anyone who comes looking for some drinks...but that should change in a few weeks. That said, we had an enjoyable experience and would recommend this spot to anyone near the Monroeville Mall who is looking for this type of meal. Enjoy the leftovers!

    Monroeville Shogun I've been coming to this restaurant for more than 20 years. Always enjoyed the experience of the chef cooking at the table and the tastiness of the food. However, my experience today has me writing this review to warn customers of the deception that I encountered with my family. Food was ok, typical, buttery and strewn atop the plate. On Sundays, kids eat for free. Cool with me. The chef was fun, the kids enjoyed him. But when the bill came, there was an 18% gratuity charge added to the cost of the entire bill before the 'free' kids' meals were deducted. Instantly, I asked the woman at the front desk where it is disclosed that gratuity is automatically added for parties of four or more. She pulls out a menu and scrapes a line that was whited out. Beneath the white, her finger nail revealed that gratuity is charged for parties of four or more. I asked why it was covered and she said because the owner is changing it. Huh? Ok. So why was she charging me 18%? She said because many people don't pay. As a generously tipping customer, I was immediately upset by her choice to charge us 18% at her own discretion. I could have sought the refund of the cost of our entire meal. But I'd rather contribute towards the people working there who do deserve their share of the tip. I don't recommend the restaurant because it is disturbing to be treated in such a manner. They won't be getting anymore of my business!

    Food was very dry. Ended up getting sick after eating here. Manager was kind but did nothing to fix it. Will never go back will stick with saga

    I think the food is very over rated. Way too expensive for food that was overcooked and dry. Never going back there again

    Very typical hibachi place. Food was food it was good and the chef was nice. A little young and over zealous on the showmanship, I want to take my eyebrows home. But the atmosphere could be cleaned up a bit more for the price paid. I went for a work dinner and wouldn't make an effort to return to this place. It was pleasantly forgettable.

    This is one of my favorite hibachi grills. The decor is delightfully tacky. The food is fantastic and the staff is wonderful. The service was quick and friendly. Never had a problem here.

    Went here over the weekend to try hibachi for the millionth time but we were craving it so we decided to give Shogun a try. The food quality was average to good with the prices a little higher than most hibachi restaurants. I felt the meal was also more rushed than most hibachi experiences, even considering the quickness of the usual dining experience with hibachi. Fine for a local once in a while spot but I would not go out of my way to go here.

    This place was very busy when I went on the weekend at night and then again during the week for lunch. I only ate there once for lunch and it was just okay. I think that the kinks need to be worked out and then they will improve. The staff need to improve their knowledge of the menu but I do plan on going back in a few months after they become more established.

    Hibachi grill lovers. We have eaten here so many times over the years that is is a comfortable old haunt. We are usually seated within 15 minutes or less as they fill up then next grill with patrons. The place is very busy on weekends but they seem to have learned to handle the crowd. Long gone are the Japanese chefs, replaced by every and any other ethnicity. Last two times we have a young many who loved the Steelers and spent his coking time talking about them. But gosh he lost track and overcook most entrees. The food is generally ok to good but far from great. We can and will eat here without too much worry. Good in a pinch for something other than table service. I think many people come for the show and uniqueness of the hibachi. But for us, it is not new, unique or exciting. They are showing their tiredness. Because of the general so-so ishness at best of this place we have not eaten the sushi. The place needs rejuvenation, bring in the spa for a facial and full body message on this place.

    This place is my in-laws' go-to restaurant for birthday dinners. We went recently for my father-in-law's birthday. We had a big group, but the service was still pretty prompt and the servers were nice enough. The hibachi guys put on a good show, with flames and onion smoke volcanoes and all that good stuff. The food is pretty good, considering that it's pretty much just meat and veggies and soy sauce, and the portions are pretty large. Hibachi dinners are always a little expensive for my tastes, but we did have a good time and enjoyed the food.

    This is a typical Japanese steakhouse that has been around for years in Monroeville, though it was my first visit here. Now they also have a sushi bar, but I couldn't possibly recommend it. I say this even though I never tried the sushi. I tried though. The menu listed all of their items in English only (not good). I confirmed that the fatty tuna was toro, but the lady did not know which kind. I ordered that, but I was told a couple of minutes later that they didn't have any. I then ordered the sea urchin (uni), and, again, a couple of minutes later I was told they did not have any. On a Saturday night at a sushi bar? Really? This is why I can't recommend it. Maybe they have rolls, but they don't have sushi. On the hibachi side, everything was just okay. The chef introduced himself and confirmed our orders. He then proceeded cooking all of the items, and never interacted with the audience again. For me, that seemed a bit aloof, though his performance did have a couple of tricks I have not seen before. For the food, I was mostly disappointed. The fried rice was overcooked and lacked egg. The extra soy and the crunchy rice was not very palatable. The vegetables were fine, but the shrimp was overcooked. Also, the grill was surprisingly dirty by the end of the routine. But I was very pleased with my teriyaki mahi mahi. It was much better than I could have possibly expected given how everything else turned out. So the place has potential, but it is not consistent enough to recommend. Also soju on the menu suggests to me that the place is Korean run. 2.5 stars

    Sushi review - OK at best. Best sushi in monroeville. Would get 3 stars if price matched quality. It doesn't. If your in monroeville and need a quick fix, go for it. Otherwise skip.

    Shogun has always been one of my favorite places to go. This is your typical hibachi style restaurant, and it's especially fun when you are with a larger group, otherwise, you are seated with random strangers. The chefs usually put on a little "show", flipping shrimp into their chef hats, lighting things on fire, etc. The food is good, I usually go with the steak/shrimp combo. You start with a salad with ginger dressing, and soup, then you have your entree. The prices are a bit high for what you get, but I've never had any complaints with how anything has tasted. The wait is somewhat long, every time we have been there, it's been really busy, but they do accept reservations.

    Nothing extraordinary, but it is good. I've never had a bad experience here. PROS: Consistent (in terms of both food and service) CONS: due to age, its gotten a bit dingy over the years--a remodel is overdue

    I've been a customer here since around 1995 or so. As others have said, this is a generally nice restaurant that has nevertheless seen better days. It's overpriced if you only consider the food - which is filling, but nothing special - but you're also paying for the ambiance and the hibachi grill performance. It's a solid choice for a group gathering (normal tables seat 8, private rooms seat more) but not really a place to go alone or on a regular basis. If you are in a small group, be aware that they seat you with other parties to fill a table, presumably to keep the grilling and shows efficient. My most recent table had my party of seven plus one lone diner, which was honestly a bad setup. It's better when the groups are balanced, so that there can be two separate conversations going on. In our case, we just had the one random guy sitting silently at our table with his arms crossed, making the meal palpably awkward as we talked around him. My most recent experience was also unusually bad food-wise. The salad was soggy and insubstantial, and the hibachi food was extremely salty. (Two hours later, I still have that salty "gagged on sea water" feeling in my mouth.) I didn't enjoy it. Plus, the portions were noticeably smaller than they used to be, despite the fact that the price was just as high. But keep in mind that that experience was not typical... Other than the portion size issue, I think we just had a bad chef.

    A marvelous Japanese Hibachi style steakhouse. This is my wife's favorite restaurant. It has great atmosphere and is not a "chain" Japanese restaurant. Highly recommended.
